Trending Issue in Focus: Shared Parenting & “Best Interests of the Child”
In South Africa, the principle of the “best interests of the child” is foundational when determining care and contact arrangements after separation or divorce. We’re also seeing a push toward more equitable involvement of both parents. For example, more fathers are seeking meaningful relationships with their children, and the legal system is gradually adapting.
That means: whether you are the primary caregiver, the secondary parent, or anyone with parental rights – the focus is on stability, emotional security, and realistic parenting plans that serve children’s real-lives, not just legal boxes.
